im a bad person who thinks bad thoughts like ‘ew what is that girl wearing’ and then remember that im supposed to be positive about all things and then think ‘no she can wear what she wants, fuck what other people say damn girl u look fabulous’ and im just a teeny bit hypocritical tbh

I was always taught by my mother, That the first thought that goes through your mind is what you have been conditioned to think. What you think next defines who you are.

So I took a last minute trip to Joshua Tree National Park for a friend’s birthday this past weekend. Last time I went I wanted to take a nude pic but ran out of time. I’m a bit nervous of showing this picture because there is only one person who has seen me naked and a couple to see me nude, but I feel invigorated having this photo bareing all of me. I am a private person and prefer to keep things to myself, but i feel that this photo is me expressing and thanking yoga for what it has done for me. Joshua Tree NP is my favorite place to go and wanted to have this experience here. This may be a shock to some but I hope that you see it as a bold move expressing myself. And hope that people see this as artistic rather then sexual. However you see it though I hope that people respect me about it. I did this for me and not for anyone else, and feel comfortable and confident about wanting to share it with others.

I always forget how beautiful of a place tumblr can be. I don’t come here often because I can get so sucked in, scrolling all day. But I should remind myself more that this is a wonderful place to escape if I need it. To be inspired, to be motivated, to find sympathy and advice, to vent, to transform, to explore, to learn, to self care.

I love every bit of my blog and even though so little of it is original to me, it is the best representation of me from over the years.

The whole of Metro Manila in the Philippines lit up their fireworks and I mean that literally and not figuratively. This is the view overlooking the city skyline which is all hazy from all the smoke. A few minutes past midnight and you can barely see anymore. New Year’s eve is crazy over there to say the least. This shot is from 2012-2013.

Yet another year flew by. Seems so recently that I called this huge packed city home, and now here I am thousands of miles away in a different country. To changes and new beginnings!

Catching Kayla: Kayla Montgomery was diagnosed with MS in 2010. She was told she could no longer play soccer so she turned to running. MS symptoms become more heightened when her body temperature increases, Due to that reason at the end of each race, her coach has to catch her and immediately get her to ice her legs so the feeling can return and she can walk. People say since she can’t feel her legs during her race that its considered cheating; well let me say this, if you think she is cheating I’m pretty sure she would rather be MS free in your place then battling this non curable disease.

We do not remember days, we remember moments. Too often we try to accomplish something big without realizing that the greatest part of life is made up of the little things. Live authentically and cherish each precious moment of your journey. Because when you finally arrive at your desired destination, I guarantee you, another journey will begin.

if someone writes you a letter or makes you a mixtape or composes a poem or song about you or creates literally anything for you then you had better cherish the absolute shit out of that person because they care about you a real lot

I think you know you’ve found someone special when you meet them for the first time, and it feels like you’re just picking up where you left off. You kind of look at them and think
“Where the hell did you come from? Where the hell have you been?”
